Hey Australian Cycling Forums, I'm a new member and am grateful to be a part of a well-run and helpful forum.

I've had a look through some of the back-pages in the Qld forum looking for recommendations on a bikeshop in the Gold Coast/Currumin area without too much luck. I need to get the cogset replaced 'cause my granny gear keeps shifting when under stress.

I'm also in the market for some new gloves, a new helmet, and perhaps a tri-suit but that all comes second to my main objective of replacing this cog.

My mum used to own an LBS in Currumbin, but recently retired.. otherwise I'd send you to her! She suggests Mikes Bikes in Miami. There's also Cabarita Cycles, but they're quite a ways south - 30 or 40Km or so. You might also try Gold Coast Triathlete in Miami. There are lots of other LBS in the area, but these are the three she suggests.

Hope this helps Max

Yes Avantiplus and In2cycles is now one and the same, and up until recently I couldnt find a shop worth deaaling with until I went there. They are in my opinion, the BEST on the coast, great staff, very reasonable prices and a great saturday morning shop ride, highly recommend them.

Was that the bike shop on the corner near the doctors?

I also suggest Mike's Bikes. Was in there the other day drooling over a 2011 Specialized Secteur and Allez... maybe in a year or so I might get a new one however the young bloke I spoke to (Mark) gave me a serious amount of his time, eventhough I stated at first "I am only looking at the moment." Brilliant customer service.

Burkes Bikes in Fielding St., in Currumbin. They sold the shop when they retired.
